A) The given equation has no solution. The absolute value cannot be negative, but must be -9 in order for the equation to be satisfied.
b) |x -7| = 2 . . . . . . . the equation
Solution 1:
-2 = x -7
5 = x . . . . . . add 7
Solution 2
x -7 = 2
x = 9 . . . . . . add 7
The two numbers are {5, 9}
28 because you must subract 22 from both sides
Answer: The graph is attached.
Step-by-step explanation: The given functions whose graphs are to be compared are as follows:

In the attached figure, the graphs of both (A) and (B) are shown. We can easily see see from there, the shapes of both the graphs are same.
But, at x = 0, y = ∞ and at x = ∞, y = 0 in graph (A).
At x = 0, y = ∞ and at x = ∞, y = 6 in graph (B).
Thus, the comparison can be seen in the figure very clearly.
Answer:
Willy Wonka
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
it takes Charlie 45 minutes walking at 2.5 km/hr
speed = distance /time
distance= speed*time
distance= 2.5*45
distance= 112.5 km
it takes Willy Wonka 15 minutes walking at 3.5 km/hr
distance= speed*time
distance= 3.5*15
distance= 52.5 km
Hence Willy Wonka stays closer
